He is an interesting character. He'll give you several options to choose from, but be careful what you wish for:

The reactions will vary, but you'll either end up with one of several things happening from his voodoo:

* turns into a frog* blown sky high into the air (though if you're a ghost when it happens it doesn't hurt you)* turned into a snake (of various colors)* grow to a larger size* given a special brew that makes you completely smashed* turns you into a ghost* turns you into a chicken

Thankfully, all of the above listed is temporary, but keep in mind that when he laughs, he's laughing at you and not with you. *wink*

If you wish to end his effects early, you can right-click the buff to dispel it.

The Special Brew and Ghostly effects are debuffs and can't be clicked away. The Ghostly effect does not stop you from recieving fall damage when getting Launch - rather, you might or might not get a buff that slows fall speed. The Grow effect stacks with all other growing effects, as far as I know, can confirm Elixir of Giant Growth, Winterfall Firewater and Bloodlust.

You cannot remove these now. i just found that out. my male can remove em but my female cannot. ?

Comment by Ganarath

when yur nuetral with the faction all of these show as debuffs.Friendly all of them besides Ghostly and Brew =]

Comment by Triestel

I encountered something odd while drunk off the "special brew" debuff. The buff had vanished, but the toon was still drunk, to clarify.

The boars around razor hill, which wowhead and my memory list as being level 6-7, were lower level, and raised as I got less drunk. Not sure if this is a glitch, but it'd be nice if someone else tried this to confirm.

He has the same voice as witch doctor units did in W3.

Comment by kreepingkill

When you get launched in the air the buff that slows your fall speed always activates but sometimes its too late and you already hit the ground. I wouldnt recommend talking to him with low health because if you get launched and today isn't your lucky day prepare to walk to your corpse.

By the way, Bombay is the name of economic capital city of India. ^_^

Comment by Legendary231

He sometimes says "eekum pokum" when casting his spell, which most people know as Mumbo Jumbo's (Banjo Kazooie) chant.

Comment by Hellizzi

This was FUN! I tried out several different versions of his voodoo, and got:-one growth-one launch-one "completely smashed" drink-one snake hex-two ghosts-four chicken hexesI kept the growth and completely smashed drink and went off to Razor Hill... on the way...*normally level 7/8/9 scorpids were showing to be very low level, mostly 3 (had one show up as level one, and as I was fighting it, it turned into a level 2!) This was during the "completely smashed" bit.*as the drink 'wore off', i felt "drunk... woah!" now the same scorpids showed as being level 6-ish.*then as it 'wore off' a bit more, i felt "tipsy", and the scorpids were level 8-ish.*the buff looked like it was gone after the "completely smashed" turned into "drunk".*the mobs are actually whatever level they truly are... they are just as hard to kill when they show up as level 3 "smashed", as they are when you feel "normal". An honestly hilarious little 'event'... i highly recommend it. :D~Hellizzi

Comment by terrordog4

yeah when you get smashed everyone around you is a lower level and as you sober up they will start to become they're normal number.

Comment by dreadblood

does this only work for trolls or all races who did the zalazane q?

Comment by Aratiti

I noticed that if you're drunk and kill a gray mob you still get xp

Comment by Derren

out of curiosity whats happen if you mind control him, can you cast the buffs/debuffs...?

Comment by kennyj313

After a lot of experimentation, I have determined the method for becoming as large as is currently possible:

1. Use either an Elixir of Giant Growth or a Giant Feast.2. Obtain the size buff from Bom'bay.3. Immediately log out and log back in as soon as you have acquired the buff.4. Get another size buff from Bom'bay (Yes, they WILL stack due to a glitch created by logging).5. Have a Shaman in your party Bloodlust.

Note: If you want to be able to show this off in Orgrimmar, make sure that you have a paladin with you, as the buff only lasts 5 minutes. You will have a maximum of about 4 minutes to get to Orgrimmar, and the buffs WILL be removed if you try to have someone summon you or if you take a portal.

Comment by Gottheit

Sadly, stacking the growth buff as of 3.3.0 no longer works. Repeatedly tried stacking the buff on different characters by logging out and logging back in.

Comment by snakefang10

I just noticed he had a different voice than other trolls but by voice of WC3 witch dr. do you mean what he sounds like or what he says?

Cuz after sumoning a unit i would laugh histericly if he says "Who called da doctor?"

Edit: Well doopty doo. I beat WCIII and made the discovery that they stay stuff when you click on them. I feel like a retard now

Comment by colinz

I can confirm that as of 3.3.5, July 16, stacking the Grow buffs does Not work. I got the first buff, logged off and back on. Was still big. When I got the Grow buff again, instead of growing bigger, it shrunk me back to normal size, even though both of the buffs are on me. I right clicked one of the two buffs to see if I could re-uncancell it out, and sadly took both buffs off altogether. Thanks Blizz :/

Comment by Reese777

Can someone tell me his entire outfit, down to the shirt? I'm trying to replicate it.

Comment by SugarWhite

OMG! I thought I was going crazy in a BG! Why are these level 77s, who shouldn't even be able to wear the same type of resillience armor that I have on, able to take so much damage? I was embarrassed for my team, that we couldn't woop up on a bunch of 77s. Liquid courage, for real. I was surprised that they gained three levels after I died.

I had a thought that I wanted to add later: I could see the rogues in stealth, much like you'd be able to see any stealthed lowbie player.

Comment by Aprem

As of 4.0.1 the quest to kill zalazane seems to be gone and with it the ability to talk to this guy to gian his buffs/debuffs. I tried on my shaman today and being an x-fer from the alliance and having never doen the quest i was unable to do it even after having done all the other quests from master w/e.

Comment by sorrowdc

I just went and talked to him now and he's giving me some nice buff/debuffs :)

Comment by Kanzamar

For those worried that he won't be giving you his slashflexness buffs any more...Regardless of whether you have done his quests before the patch or not, just do his new ones:

Never Trust a Big Barb and a SmileIf you're 80, this 'un can be a bit worse, as the Clattering Scorpids, whose venom you need, won't cast their Envenom spell until they're hurt, but your iLvl 1k Epic Sword of Awesomeness will probably kill it instantly. If you're a class with a good bunch of melee stats, unequipping most of your gear should hopefully be enough (weapons included, of course). If you're a physically weak class, unequipping your weapon will probably be enough. Just slam down your Poison Extraction Totem (provided), give the mob's nose a half-hearted punch and it should Envenom you once. Kill it and move to the next scorpid.

Congratulations! His "new" mojo is available, just like it used to be.Put it to good use.

Comment by Phaleux

Thanks to the new flight path in Sen'jin, you can get almost your whole 5 minute growth buff without having to ride back up!

Comment by Solfa

The growth buff can still stack twice. I went down there, did the 2 quests, got the first Growth buff, relogged and came back, and got the 2nd Growth buff.

Comment by Nubx2140

Bom'Bay exists still and still gives out his x2 growth logout/in bug/glitch as of 12/4/10 so im probably going to be downrated for trolling when i am not

Comment by Astrinel

Note: You can be on a mount while hexed, just talk to him after you are mounted.

Comment by awesomeaaron

Tauren on green proto drake + 2 stacks of grow + elixer of giant growth +org mailbox by ah = massive lols due to people not being able to click on the mailbox

Comment by Namikaza

As of this post you can no longer do the Get Grow, Log off, and Get Grow again.

Comment by cloverman84

Still too overpowered as a level 85? The solution is simple.

Get naked. (always a good start)

Kill yourself. (no really, mount up, get up high, dismount and die)

Take the spirit rez...

Viola! 75% damage reduction from Resurrection Sickness should be more than enough to tap those scorpies (turn off ret aura or any other such "cause damage when hit" abilities :p).

***NOTE:*** This may be an expensive method with the repair bill from res sickness, but is likely the only way to do this for most classes at 85. Further to that, the getting naked is to aid in reducing your damage, as items in your inventory will take durability damage from the res sickness (you could put all your gear in the bank first I suppose).

Comment by techbear

You may no longer get the grow buff. Blizzard is sick...

Comment by Killaer

Anyone have the soundbites for this guy?

Comment by taurehe

I think they should change his name to Mum'bai

Comment by mth978

You now (5.1) lose one of your stacks of grow upon entering Orgrimmar. This is probably related to the implementation of zone phasing, as Durotar is a realm-shared zone and Orgrimmar is not.

Comment by hyperion5225

if your poly morphed while mounted you will stay mounted as a chicken

Comment by dlbert2000

The second Grow buff gets removed if you hearth back to org or two moons. It also does not stack with elixir of giant growth or Vrykul drinking horn

Comment by Yakeshi

Here is a helpful macro to cut down on time, if you're trying to get the Growth, Ghost, or Drunken buffs/debuff.

/cancelaura Hex

All of his transformation spells are labeled as simply "Hex", and since they are buffs, can be dismissed. Should work 100% of the time, and really cuts down on time, since you're mouse will be free and can remain on him, while you spam the macro.

Comment by Yousha

2 stacks of grow still works and the second one dissapears on loading screenson a side note the 2 grow size is +69% to your normal size
